'For over 25 years the author has studied, at first hand, the life of the Lion, the way he brings up his family, the way he hunts and the way he dies. C. A. W. Guggisberg is, without question, the world authority on this amazing animal, and this book will surely be recognized as the classic on the subject. He has not only spent a considerable portion of his life in the wilds of Africa, taking, among other things, all the powerful photographs in this book, but he has read widely the leading books on the history of the Lion from the earliest times to the present day.
SIMBA will appeal to the ordinary reader who will delight in the many fascinating accounts of the author's first hand experiences with the King of Beasts and will be an essential for all naturalists and those interested in wild life.' - editor's note
